Throw a bat at him.

Seriously though I love Ozzy. I heard he fell off the wagon recently so hopefully he's not all messed up again.

 

Hopefully not. Can't really believe he's still going.

 

Hey Joe/Dan, as Law students, I'd like to ask you a legal related question. In DBS/CRB forms, it asks you to declare if you have any convictions/warnings/whatever and they say if you declare false information, it could be a criminal act but what if say you've been told off by a police officer but you genuinely don't think it was an official warning which would appear in a DBS check? How can they say whether you've deliberately declared false information or if you genuinely believed the information you put down?

 

Being "told off" by a police officer is not something you would have to declare, unless it was on record. If you don't have a criminal record, you have nothing to declare.

Now I'm going to have to ask you to tell us all the story which resulted in you being reprimanded by a copper.

 

If it's only a telling off they'd probably have no record of it anyway, so even a real stringent background check wouldn't throw anything up. Either way, you'd know if it was an official warning.

 

How would you know, just out of curiosity?

Just the usual student idiocy

 

Out with it...

 

There was a man on Question Time who said that he'd been given a caution and the police hadn't told him that he'd been given one.

 

I have once been manhandled by a policeman.

 

I once got arrested for no reason.

 

I've never had any run-ins with police

 

Was once with a group of friends and a security guard came up to us and said that someone of our description had been holding up traffic

I hope he didn't just pick on us as we were teenagers who were having a laugh in Tesco. It would be a bit hypocritical if he was because he was black and he wouldn't have liked it if someone accused him of doing something because of the colour of his skin, which a lot of policemen do nowadays.

 

I've been arrested twice and jailed once. Once was because I looked like a guy that had beaten some one up. The other time i was arrested and jailed because "I looked like I was looking for trouble" whatever the hell that means. Which i successfully sued for wrongful arrest and imprisonment.

 

Got pulled over once for doing 25kph over the speed limit (to be fair to me, it's a ridiculous transition from an 80 zone to a 50 that no one obeys) with a car that had more than a couple examples of drug paraphernalia in it. Got nothing but an unofficial warning for speeding because a friend of mine had swapped my driver's licence with that of someone else at a party without my knowledge, and the two RCMP officers were in tears laughing at the fact that I pulled out a license featuring a 5'0"-nothing girl with a ponytail.

Only other minor brushes with the law came in my local town before the RCMP moved in...the town cops where I grew up were mad bastards all, but their reign ended when the chief was imprisoned for having carnal knowledge of a 14 year old, which worked out well for everyone but that 14 year old.

 

Got stopped by MP at RAF picket post in Cyprus, smuggling a girl back onto camp. In the heat of argument with said Snowdrop I called him "mush"....he asked me where I came from and told him Soton.....he was from Pompey but it diffused the situation an he let me in, best of pals. (Apologies for fraternisation with a Pompeyite but sometimes one has to bite the bullet)

 

Sorry to break the conversation but seen this on Twitter. Not sure if it's genuine but I guess we will see.

@Super_JJE: Just thinking, I hope the Southampton 1st team footballer who broke his ankle at Varsity today recovers soon. Scummer or not #unfortunate

 

What was he doing there?

Squeeky clean me, but I can understand how they get things wrong http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BO8EpfyCG2Y
